"Then we'll see if what True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng has prepared will come in handy."
Chapter 62 The Last Supper
Wu Di's voice was very serious, because he could already vaguely see the malice in his vision, which meant that they were very close to Liyue Harbor.
Moreover, according to the information provided by Ningguang, the weather above the location of Guyun Pavilion is extremely bad, with either thunder and lightning or torrential rain.
The sky was always covered with dark clouds, and one could vaguely see flashes of blood-black lightning.
Moreover, the Lonely Cloud Pavilion is now off-limits to strangers, and people are using various methods to observe the foolish puppets inside.
It was discovered that some parts of his body had become severely deformed, making him look extremely disgusting and terrifying. Those deformed parts faintly shimmered with a blood-black light.
(Cthulhu-style flesh deformities)
However, due to equipment limitations, some photos could not be taken, which Ye Lan found somewhat regrettable. She felt disgusted herself, but she couldn't let others feel disgusted as well, which was a real pity.
Wu Di said that just seeing the actual appearance was enough to make his scalp tingle. If he actually saw the real thing, he wouldn't be able to eat for several days.
"Yes, I will tell the Seven Stars and the other immortals this information so that they can prepare."
Gan Yu nodded. Even the immortals couldn't easily get close now; they could only rely on Wu Di's perception.
After Gan Yu finished speaking, she left. Now, she needed to know about everything happening with Ausel as soon as possible and then react accordingly.
This is all the help Wu Di can offer Li Yue now. After all, this is a trial given to Li Yue by the Geo Archon, and as an outsider, he shouldn't get involved.
Of course, Wu Di also promised Gui Zhong that he would do his best to help Li Yue when necessary.
Recently, Wu Di has been staying at Qunyu Pavilion. According to Gan Yu, this makes it more convenient to transmit information without having to run around.
Wu Di was going to stay at Qunyu Pavilion for the time being, and Ningguang was naturally happy to welcome him and prepared a room for him to move in quickly.
However, Gan Yu had a little girlish selfishness and specially arranged for Wu Di to stay in a room very close to her, right next to hers, so that Gan Yu could be closer to Wu Di.
Wu Di told Ying and Paimeng that he would be staying at Qunyu Pavilion temporarily, saying that he needed to take care of some things and would not be returning for the time being.
They were given all the specific information, and they hoped that the girls could find a safe place to take refuge.
However, Ying refused, hoping that she could contribute when the time came instead of being a coward.
Ying's words impressed Paimon, who was standing nearby. He hadn't expected this guy to be so brave.
Feeling the determination and courage emanating from Ying, Wu Di could only nod and go along with their idea.
However, Wu Di repeatedly reminded them to be extra careful, since the enemy was at the level of a demon god.
—Liyue
It was dusk. Zhongli Gang and Yingpaimeng had parted ways and were walking back to the Hall of Rebirth. Zhongli Gang looked quite content, but his eyes kept glancing at the Thousand Rock Army around him.
Although he wasn't entirely clear about the situation on Oser's side, he could sense the intense aura of the demon god.
Zhongli found it strange that even though a thousand years had passed, Oser's strength didn't seem to have weakened at all.
And it's still constantly improving, but it's all under control. However, Liyue is also preparing something. Has Qixing already discovered the anomaly at Guyun Pavilion? That's truly commendable.
Moreover, Zhongli sensed that the auras of the immortals had already gone to the Jade Pavilion and were staying there temporarily. Furthermore, the Returning Machines had been disassembled and brought to the Jade Pavilion for installation.
This generation of Seven Stars is quite capable. Not only did they discover the anomaly at Lonely Cloud Pavilion, but they also managed to keep the immortals here. It seems that Seven Stars is ready to welcome Osel.
This made Zhongli very gratified. After all, seeing his "child" so well-prepared and excellent before the trial put his somewhat uneasy heart at ease.
Now, we'll see how the trial goes.
Zhong Li's lips curled up slightly, and his steps became lighter and more cheerful than before.
Of course, he would be even happier if it weren't for Master Hu cooking himself.
Zhong Li frowned as he looked at the clamoring dishes in front of him, then glanced at the waiters who were secretly watching, as if questioning them, "Why didn't you stop Master Hu from cooking?"
As if they had received Zhongli's question, they kept shaking their heads, then shrugged, their expressions full of helplessness, as if to say, "We can't stop you, we can't stop you, so please go in peace."
Upon receiving the response, Zhong Li's lips twitched involuntarily. He then turned his gaze to Hu Tao, who was smiling broadly, and heard her speak.
"I didn't expect that you, Zhongli, would quietly take on such a big order on Tianquan Star, to arrange the 'Sending Immortal Ceremony' for Emperor Yan Wang."
"Well done, Zhongli! You truly deserve to be our most outstanding guest elder at the Hall of Rebirth!"
Hu Tao came to Zhong Li's side, her expression full of excitement and pride, and kept patting his shoulder.
"To give the Rock King Emperor a gift, that was my dream. I never even dared to think about it before."
"I never thought it would actually come true one day!"
"So, to reward you for your great contribution, I've personally cooked a feast for you. Enjoy!"
Upon hearing this, Zhongli paused, as if he had thought of something, and then spoke.
"Thank you for your kindness, Master Hu, but I really can't handle so many 'fine items' by myself."
"If we can't finish it, wouldn't that be a waste of Master Hu's good intentions?"
"Based on the idea that sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone, I welcome my friends outside the door to come and enjoy it together."
"After all, I can't organize the entire ceremony by myself; it will depend on my partners."
As soon as he said this, a loud noise and running sounds came from outside the door, accompanied by Hu Tao's loud shouts.
"Those who don't come back! They won't get their salary this month!"
Upon hearing this, those who had left could only return to their rooms, then look at Zhongli with grief and indignation, as if uttering a soul-searching question: "Why are you so cruel! You dragged us into this mess!"
Zhongli remained unmoved amidst these grief-stricken gazes, even wearing a slight smile and politely greeting everyone.
"Eat quickly, don't waste Master Hu's good intentions."
"That's right, you need to be well-fed to have the energy to work."
"You guys... don't... not want to eat, right?"
Finally, under Hu Tao's death stare, everyone reluctantly picked up their chopsticks, stuffed the food into their mouths, forced smiles, and kept saying how delicious it was.
The whole atmosphere was just like "The Last Supper".
Chapter 63 I Need to Regroup the Troops
—One day left until the seal is broken
"Haha, I can finally see that familiar mountain. Looks like we're almost at Liyue."
Beidou stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the familiar mountains in the distance, which directly told these people who had left home that they were about to arrive home.
"I don't know why Ningguang called me back in such a hurry."
"And we can't say it through 'Chiyone,' we have to say it when we meet in person."
"Based on what I know about her, it's probably not a good thing."
A few days ago, Ningguang used a rare object made by Fontaine, a device that enables long-distance communication, called "Thousand Sounds," meaning that it can transmit sound to the ears of people thousands of miles away.
(My own personal interpretation)
However, the materials used to make "Chiyone" are too rare, and only a dozen or so finished products were made. Therefore, six of them were put up for auction in an attempt to recoup some of the costs.
Then, due to its unique characteristics, it caught the eye of Ningguang, a wealthy woman from Liyue, who used her absolute wealth to directly bid for three of them, with a price so high that it drew attention.
The production team of "Qianyin" stated on the spot that if any problems occur during the use of "Qianyin", they will provide free repairs for life.
Two of the three "Thousand Sounds" are in the hands of Beidou and Yelan respectively, and the remaining one is in the hands of Ningguang.
This fast and direct communication method made it easier for them to communicate. That's why Ningguang immediately told Beidou to come back.
For Ningguang, every bit of power she gains in resisting the demon god Oser increases her chances of victory.
Moreover, the ocean is the home ground for BeiDou and its ships.
"However, what's the situation at Lonely Cloud Pavilion?"
Beidou looked towards the direction where dark clouds were gathering in the distance. After all, the surrounding area was all blue sky and white clouds, and it would be strange if it hadn't been noticed that there were dark clouds there.
"And I always felt a strange sense of oppression, as well as a threat, a threat to my life."
"Could it be that Ningguang called me back in such a hurry because of this?"
Beidou felt she had grasped the truth, so there was no time to lose and she shouted loudly.
"Brothers! Liyue Harbor is in sight! Full speed ahead!"
"Yes, boss!!!"
——Qunyu Pavilion
Beidou didn't dock the ship at Liyue Harbor but at the foot of that mountain. Instead, he and a few crew members rowed to Liyue Harbor, went ashore, and then went to the Jade Pavilion alone.
Along the way, Beidou discovered that Liyue was on high alert, with large groups of Thousand Rock Army soldiers patrolling everywhere.
Beidou could sense the tense atmosphere in Liyue; it seemed that what Ningguang was about to tell her had a significant impact.
They arrived at the Jade Pavilion quickly. Beidou used the "Floating Life Stone" to reach the Jade Pavilion and discovered that some changes had occurred there.
Those weapons, imbued with an ethereal aura, deeply captivated Beidou. It would be wonderful to have a few on her ship.
Just as Beidou was observing those weapons, she also saw Ningguang's figure. At this moment, she was chatting with a large bird.
(Is that the legendary immortal?)
Beidou thought to himself, then called out to Ningguang very loudly.
"Hey! Ningguang! Why did you call me back so urgently? Is something serious happened?"
“Beidou, you’ve come at the right time. We were just talking about you. Let me introduce you to the True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng.”
“True Lord, this is my good friend, Beidou, who is known as the ‘Dragon King’.”
Ningguang heard Beidou's voice, turned around and responded, then gave a brief introduction.
"Ah hello."
"Hello, immortal."
Compared to the somewhat indifferent Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, Beidou was much more enthusiastic. Seeing that the immortal was so cold to him, he didn't care and instead looked at Ningguang.
"So what about that thing that can't be said outright in 'Chion'?"
